I'm comparing two calibers shooting the same type of bullet of similar weights, and it's raised some questions for me. Since I don't reload, I've been looking at ELD-X factory offerings from Hornady, the 143 gr out of a 6.5 creed and the 145 out of a 270 Win.

The 6.5 has a higher ballistic coefficient, but the 270 Win has a muzzle velocity (according to Hornady's numbers) of 500 fps more than the 6.5. The difference in velocity narrows as distance increases - that is the effect of the higher BC of the 6.5, right? However, at 500 yards, the bullet from 270 is still 100 fps faster.

Does this mean that 270 will have much more killing power from 0-500 yards? Seems like the 500 fps at the muzzle is a significant difference, but how about the 100 fps at 500 yards? Is 100 fps enough to make a difference?

Does higher BC factor into how the bullet will perform when it actually hits the target?
The 6.5CM might not have a higher b.c. it's partially about comparing b.c data across bullets of same or similar sectional densities. In the example you gave, s.d. is not as close a comparable to then look at other ballistic data. For instance, you can handload the 270 win with 130gr CEB bullets with a .540 b.c and still get 3100+ fps. A lot of .264 bullets of similar sectional density do not have as high a b.c. and of those that do, say, a similar 120 gr CEB bullet, velocities are likely going to be closer to 3000+fps
in the 6.5 CM andd b.c of .500 vs . 540. with the 270 win..

To your question, all else being equal, the better b.c, bullet will eventually compensate for lower velocity over time (distance) versus a higher velocity bullet of lower b.c. .

"Does higher BC factor into how the bullet will perform when it actually hits the target?" in part, yes. the higher b.c bullet might have higher retained energy and may help you have more leeway in guessing wind drift...but most important will be final bullet placement and bullet construction that will determine how it will perform.
More for you to consider.

The 6.5 will be spinning faster with the typical 1 in 8 ROT 6.5 CM and 1 in 10 ROT 270 Win. Does rpm matter on impact with game? It's certainly not going to be less....

Obviously, 500 fps is a lot.

Does recoil matter to you?

Higher bc will drift less, always. No matter the distance.

Prediction. Doesn't make a darned bit of difference on game because bullet placement is what matters.

While the 270 Win will have more " killing power", I agree that it likely won't make much if any difference on deer sized game out to most sensible hunting distances if shooting similar s.d bullets of quality construction.
Western Sloper,

You are comparing the same bullet and of the same weight, but quite different in terms of ballistic coeficient, reason by which the 6,5 catches up with the 270 as they both fly further enough.

The 270 makes more noise, recoils about a 35% more and has the potential for a higher killing power. How this shows up while hunting, I am not sure I have noticed it.

Maybe if shooting close enough, when the speed difference is still high, but at the typical shooting distances when stalking, let us say 250-350 yds, I have not noticed it.
I have a 270 and a 260 and use both, with 120 gr Nosler BTs in the 260 and 130 gr Nosler BTs in the 270. All are handloads. Both are very effective on Deer and Hogs, and more and more I find myself reaching for the 260. It’s a smaller and slower bullet, but that doesn’t seem to matter to the critters. And, inside 400 yards, bullet BC just doesn’t matter enough to a hunter to worry about.

As for killing power, I’d certainly rate the 270 higher, but the increase in killing power isn’t needed for deer. If I was specifically hunting a 300 pound hog at distance, I’d take the 270 with me, I suppose.
Drift. Everyone’s a long range sniper and can read gnat farts at 1,200 yards.

Boolit mass,is largely moot and what matters most is it's construction and aero form(BC/Ballistic Coefficient),which is simply a numerical designation of a drag function...or simply,how well schit flys in a given atmosphere. Hint.

The 143/6.5 bullet has a sectional density of .293. The 145/270 bullet has a sectional density of .270. That means that the 6.5 will penetrate deeper in any game animal at any range assuming equal bullet construction. And since we are comparing the ELD-X in both calibers that is as close as you can get to an apples to apples comparison. Both will penetrate more than enough on deer size game, but if you start hunting larger game the extra penetration is something to consider. A 140 gr 6.5 will match a 180 gr 30 caliber for penetration.

The 270 will shoot flatter at any hunting range. At some point well beyond where hunters will be shooting the 6.5 may be shooting flatter. Both shoot flat enough to hit game animals out to 500 yards. The 270 only has a 1.5" advantage at 300 yards with a 200 yard zero.

The 145/270 has a 270 fps advantage at the muzzle over the 143/6.5 according to Hornady (2970 vs 2700). But nobody kills stuff at the muzzle. The farther you go down range the more the gap closes. By the time you get to 500 yards the 270 only has about 120 fps advantage. Once you get out to around 700 yards the 6.5 will pass the 270. In other words the calibers are close enough (6.8mm vs 6.5mm), the bullet weights are about the same and impact speeds are more than enough at close range with either, and at longer ranges the same or a slight edge to the 6.5. No animal will ever know the difference.

But.....

I will almost guarantee that 9 times out of 10 a 6.5CM will be more accurate than a 270.

In an 8 lb rifle a 6.5 will recoil with about 14 ft lbs of recoil. Not much more than a 243. In an 8 lb rifle a 270 will recoil with about 19 ft lbs recoil. Just a hair less than a 30-06.

And once again...in other words...anyone not shooting 1000 yards and operating in the real world where 1 inch of drop matters not a damn bit...same same and go find something better to wonder about.
The 6.5C is shown pushing the best BC bullet available in 6.5C factory fodder.

Do the same (same pressure) with the .270W, and report findings. Downside is most .270W are not twisted appropriately.

No doubt, the 6.5C was designed correctly from the projectile to the platform.
The velocity of the 270 is more on par with the 6.5 PRC than a Creed at the muzzle using factory ammo. But as it was shown it don’t take long for the 147 to catch up due to it’s slickness. I really like the 147 and it’s done well for me. Haven’t killed with the 145 yet but showed a lot of promise out of a CA Ridgeline.
mjkchunt,

"Drop" is Physics,as cited. 50yds is still shy of 1000yds,if only to your Retardation. Hint. Congratulations?!?

Though you are welcome to "cite" the "platforms" you "shoot" which "enable" your DUMB Fhuqktitude. Hint.

Reduced recoil,reduced muzzle blast,reduced noise,reduced windage corrections,reduced cost,reduced rifle weight,reduced trajectory(hint),reduced drift(re-hint),assuredly do not hurt production. HINT.

BUT you "get" to add more money to the equation,to 'bask" in your STUPIDITY...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint.

Bless your heart for trying.

What's the drift difference at 450 yards and a 20 mph wind?
Dunno. Its academic. I shoot deer at 300 or less yards. So we can talk about the space shuttles ballistic coefficient but my model airplane doesn't need the precision lol

According to Stick's data above 1/10 mil at 500 yards in a 10 MPH wind, so I'm guessing still 1/10 mil in a 20 MPH wind at 500.

I got two myself, and no Creedmoor rifles of any flavor. The .270 works as good as it ever did, and I see no reason fix it. I can still kill things with its inferior ballistics just fine.

Wasn't zooming in from the phone to see details on the fly cutting meat, was just curious. Out here, 450 and 20MPH wouldn't be too hypothetical. The other day I was 670 and about 8 mph from a couple patient antelope. More BC would have been better. Zero worries all around. The little 6.5 CM vs 270, they're both killers for sure, even loaded with the ELDXs.... If the industry would twist faster across the board, we'd all be better off! Let the insults fly. Cheers.

Folks run up to the high 2,800s to low 2,900s with 143gr/147gr and RL26, even RL16 and RL17 will get you into the 2,800s with 24" tubes. You're not going to get into the 3,100 fps range without stepping up in case size though.
143 Eldx factory ammo btw. Did fine.
Oh good lord, Burris hit the shiitter!!! 😂
Good buck.
Nice buck man. Glad it’s finally going over there.

Calvin,

I've yet to see a Burris scope hold zero or track,but admittedly gave up on 'em many moons ago. Baby Man's Fieldcraft will get a 20 MoMo 1913 rail and the 6x MQ goes without saying. Cain't know if I have anymore 20MoMo Montucky rails laying about,for The 270 Killer. I guess it goes without saying,that a 6x MQ goes there as well. Hint.

Any of those choices will work fine, though the 5.56 will be anemic.

More importantly, the fanciest gear and highest bc are no better than the person behind the rifle. Folks debate gear the most and practice the least, when most would see bigger improvement in results by actually going and shooting more.

As for the technical question, the 7 RM with a 168, 175/6 or 180 of preference will outshine the others in every aspect except recoil, and more so as wind and distance increases.

From your list:

1. 7 RM 168 or 180 Berger

2. .30-06 185 Berger Jugg

3. 7-08 168 Berger

I’ve used more Scenars than Bergers, and they certainly work well. TTSX are what I use the most for critters these days, but I hunt in brush country so distances are short. The ABLR looks good in theory, but has not provided anywhere near the accuracy of Berger, Lapua, or Barnes, but I’ll give them another test drive sometime.

Doesn't matter, I'd throw out the .223 because I'm not interested and it's not legal where I hunt the most for anything other than varmints. All this back and forth over 6.5 vs. .270 win really doesn't matter in the end, both will get the job done. Is the .270 Win the most efficient way to get there anymore, not by a long shot. However, that doesn't mean it is any less capable than it ever was even with its inferior ballistics beyond 500 yards. It's kind of like why I still have an 84 CJ7 and 99 F250SD 7.3L they aren't the best off road, most efficient, or powerful vehicles out there anymore but the always seem to get done what I ask of them.
It’s safe to say they are both up to killing game way out there. Question would be, is the shooter. When the 260 Rem was introduced it was hailed as a 270 Win in ballistics with less recoil and better bullets. The 6.5 Creedmoor is an improvement over the 260 by way of faster twist, in most cases, and able to handle longer projectiles by way of better case design. If it were me I would take the 6.5 CM and never look back.

Ok time for a serious question for the guru....... does it matter if you are 4'10" in stature compared to 6'10" ?, that is a big elevation difference......

How about 4'10" in the rain? versus 6'10" in the sunshine? ...

How about climate change? does it affect trajectory? global warming? many things to ponder.... hopefully the guru can answer these pressing questions...

Oh and does shooting from a couch affect POI.. ?

I would be quite happy to take a 243, 6.5 Creed, 270 Win, etc,.

400 yards and under hunting deer.
400 yards and under? Holy schit, you must be like all sneaky and all that. If you spent a little time on the internet you’d realize that deers are like 1,200 - 1,500 yards away at all times and you have to be a spawn of Carlos Hathcock and Chris Kyle in order to shoot you one.

Interesting Sam, and I can’t find fault with your thinking, except that I’d put elk in the “deer” category, lose the 243, and extend the range past 500 yards.

My favorite 2-Rifle Montana Battery has always been a 243 and 270. But if a really practical soul wanted to distill those two into one, it would definitely be the 6.5 Creedmoor. It genuinely does most of the work of those two.

Quite a round, going back over 120 years...
Originally Posted by MtnBoomer

Nope doesn't matter.

The .300 Savage the worst pick of all the cartridges you listed after the 5.56 for where I live and hunt. I'll admit it's most limited, but still capable of taking game in the conditions you listed. Like I said not the most efficient way to get there, but it can definitely place a bullet successfully into the vitals of a big game animal at 670 yards.

Originally Posted by westernsloper

The 6.5 has a higher ballistic coefficient, but the 270 Win has a muzzle velocity (according to Hornady's numbers) of 500 fps more than the 6.5. The difference in velocity narrows as distance increases - that is the effect of the higher BC of the 6.5, right? However, at 500 yards, the bullet from 270 is still 100 fps faster.

Does this mean that 270 will have much more killing power from 0-500 yards? Seems like the 500 fps at the muzzle is a significant difference, but how about the 100 fps at 500 yards? Is 100 fps enough to make a difference?

Does higher BC factor into how the bullet will perform when it actually hits the target?


You can see from the charts that the 270 remains ahead in velocity to 500 and is still going faster at that range. The results are different at longer ranges but for my hunting the bullet could fall out of the sky at 401 yards and I would not care. I filled my buck tag with my bow this rifle season.

In my opinion you may not see a difference between the two from the muzzle to 500 yards.

Does higher BC factor into how the bullet will perform when it actually hits the target? Not one bit.

Pick one and go hunting.
I enjoy the inherent STUPIDITY,of you DUMB Fhuqks doing your best. Hint. Congratulations?!?

The total amount of brass you gals "shoot",wouldn't fill up a Hickory breast pocket in a year's time of TRYING...and you "hard chargers" "fight" "tenaciously" to prove same,obliviously! EPIC fhuqking humor,you poor poor(literally) Drooling DUMB Fhuqks. Hint.

BC aspooks the schit outta Melting Snowflakes everywhere,which in itself,is funnier than fhuqk. It's simply a numerical designator,to quantify an aero form and is no more "scary" than "velocity" or "grains",yet will charge up Whining CLUELESS Kchunts like few other things and reliably draw Followers to The Flame. Hint.

The "heralded" 270Win/145 ELD do thusly,as plainly cited prior. Note the 500yd line arrival speed,being 2133fps. Hint.

[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]

Now because of you CLUELESS Fhuqking Drooler's "knowledge","results" and "experience","quantifying" how BC is a "moot" designator,one can simply swapaloo boolits of like mass,at like speed and obtain "like" results. Now despite an IDENTICAL launch Speed,in an IDENTICAL atmosphere...things ain't 'quite the "same". 500yd impact velocity is no longer arranging a 2133fps velocity,but rather 1762fps impact velocity...though wind drift is nearly doubled too. Hint. LAUGHING!

[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]

You AMAZINGLY Stupid Fhuqktards never disappoint,by simply doing your best. Hint.

Bless your hearts for TRYING...it's never been difficult to savvy who shoots and who don't.

Fortunately,Imagination and Pretend are free,so you "lucky" kchunts can "afford" to "contribute".

^^^ this^^^
For 99%of hunting you won't see any difference. If I was starting out from scratch, the Creed might be the way to go, Higher BC's, less recoil, yadda yadda yadda but I'm not selling my 270 or buying anything new any time soon.
Blackcryer,

A reduction in recoil,a reduction in noise,more fun,greater terminal affects,less wind drift,higher impact velocities and a shorter/handier parcel,are farrrrrr greater than a 1% difference,as "factored",by your version of "knowledge","experience" and "results".

You be sure to cite any/all words that are "too big" or "too Technical" for you to "understand",as you are drawn like a Moth to The Flame and then melt like all the other Snowflakes. Hint. Congratulations?!? LAUGHING!

Now the only thing in regards to The Outdoors or The Rifle,which you are equipped to talk about in the first hand,is your uncanny propensity to act upon your Homoerotic Fantasies...you "lucky". Not that YOU,could "afford" a good scope. Hint. LAUGHING!

If only to horn you up further and so you can look at more wares wellllllll beyond your "abilities","means" or "comprehension". Hint.

I know your cute little turret cap cover is a line cap- you dull moron. And I know all about your cutesie little tape schemes- like a 6th grader trying to be noticed. When did the trauma in your life occur? Age 9, 11? Evidently very young because that is where your brain development ceased.
123BITCH,

You "know" less than nothing,which is why you are funnier than fhuqk,by literal default. Hint. Congratulations?!? LAUGHING!

Is this where yet another Follower,divulges that she's glued to my every word and Splendid Pixel?!? Sweetie...that will ONLY come as a "surprise" to you. Fortunately,you get to "live" vicariously,you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. LAUGHING!

Might I reinforce your "stance" and mention that you are doing GREAT! Luckily for you,Imagination and Pretend are free,so you can "afford" to "contribute". Hint. Laughing!

Barely blowing 60mph currently,as I patiently await more Mail,so I can R&D a Herd at once. Had never thought about tape,until I heard the emitted via High Pitched Nasal Whine,through your quivering lips. Be sure to espouse even more of your very WELL founded Insecurities. Hint. LAUGHING!

Gotsta' bolt some schit together this AM and tape is soundin' like a good idea! Any color preferences,not that you could "afford" a roll of your "own". Have a new 270 and 30-06 to assemble. Thoughts? Hint. LAUGHING!

First off I wouldn't take the 670 yard shot with any rifle. Killing an antelope does not mean that much to me. Second unless I trade into one and make out in a big way I will never own a 6.5 Creed. Third the 270 is a fine round, if I actually needed to improve on it I would get my 280AI out, but it has never been hunting. Last but not least I can do a majority of my hunting of deer and antelope hunting with just about any rifle designed to push pointed bullets. I could do all my Texas deer hunting with a 223 if I wanted to. The concern over the recoil difference between a 270 and a 6.5 Creed baffles me. This all said I might just put together a 7-08AI 1-8 twist rifle to shoot steel on the local tactical range, since it is not raining or windy that often here in Texas I can shoot more often than Stick in relative comfort.

rickety,

In fairness,nobody would know better than you,just how poor(literally) your equipment and skillsets are. Hint. Congratulations?!? LAUGHING!

Do tell about your "Magical" 280AI. Build particulars are always fhuqking HILARIOUS,when coming from a Whining CLUELESS Texan. Receiver? Barrel? RPM? Stock? Base? Rings? Scope? "Magic" bullet's COAL and velocity,if only for starters. Hint. LAUGHING!

Your STUPIDITY isn't baffling at all,but IS assuredly funnier than fhuqk and only because you are doing your best. In fairness however,I only shoot a coupla 7-08 AI's,but now you can say you've "seen" one,you "lucky" kchunt. Hint.

How about the lowly 7-08, 180 ELD-M, 2600 FPS, 3800' + elev, 22F +.... Berger calculator indicates it'll stabilize. If 670 is too much, 500 will do. Or not.


G7 .401

Drops like a rock but drift is slight. Will try it out someday when I can save up for some primers. LOL

I have both but the 270 Win has the advantage of being chambered in a Marlin MR-7. cool

270 Win - 1
6/6.5 Creed - 0

This forum is "Hunting rifles".

Talking hunting rifles is just like talking fishing tackle it is 100% personal preference.

If it works, grab one and go hunting.

Those wood stocked ones are nice.

It's a Kimber of Oregon Mod 89 BGR Super America 270 W, made between '89 and '91. I worked in the woodshop, in my home town, during the time this rifle was produced, 1990. Likely but not definitively had my hands on it... It's a joy to own because of that!

Obviously, 500 fps is a lot.

Does recoil matter to you?

Higher bc will drift less, always. No matter the distance.

Prediction. Doesn't make a darned bit of difference on game because bullet placement is what matters.



Nor sure where you're coming from on the higher B.C. thing. Velocity plays a big part in wind drift.

Take the following examples using Nosler data:

.625 B.C., 6.5 CM, 144g ABLR @ 2731fps
.530 B.C., 6.5-06, 130g ABLR @ 3151fps
.591 B.C., .270 Win, 150g ABLR @ 2913fps

The 6.5CM has the highest B.C., yet it has the most drop and drift and least velocity and energy out to 1000 yards, the limit of my range calculations.
In reference to the two bullets the OP asked about. No? They're darn close, 143 at 2700, and 145 at 3000 are near even for drift at 500, the slower one with higher BC is better yet at 1000 and 1500. Not much though. (Using JBM, G7s, and bullet lengths found).

But sure, you're totally correct when including velocity into my statement... Get my drift? Something like that. It was wrong to state it as an absolute.
No problem.

Well your attempt at being a funny muther fugger is appreciated. But the facts are my skillset as far as shooting goes is up there with you ability to shoot the foot in your mouth. That said the 280AI is built on a Springfield action, Shilen barrel, pretty walnut stock and a Timney (ugh) trigger. It is a good shooter but it won't do a damn thing my 270 can't do. And by the way the 7-08AI is pretty popular in Texas. The rifles you put together, if it were not for the funny paint jobs would all look pretty much the same, utilitarian and boring. Can't knock that but have you ever heard of a true custom rifle builder like Biesen? If you are so well off why do you keep building these rat rifles you could care less about? Think McWhorter, http://www.mcwhorterrifles.com/ now those are true long range hunting rifles. Not some barrel nutted together AK bush orphans.

Sorry but you, I and several others on this thread would never be able to distinguish any difference in the field regarding BC between the two. Both are comparable out to 700 yards before seeing any advantages, far beyond most hunting/field use.

An Biesen with a period correct Zeiss Germany, how can you even show your face with such dogshït wares. Don’t you know serious hunting guns have to entail cnc’s, stainless and ‘glass stocks. Fück your hand fit dog knot of a rifle.

Oops I mean nice Peasant rifle dude, I dig it. 😉


Ya I’m feeling pretty stupid right now. That mounting system needs cut off it with a die grinder.
And some rattle can paint on the stock would definitely make it look better. 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣
Throw it in the ocean and take a pic of it...... after the paint job of course.... wink

Oh and did Beav share a pic of his whitetail with you? he is playing hard to get... hahahah
He did not! Guess we’ll have to twist his arm.
Fred,
Where's the tape? Ya gotta have tape, man.
Nice rifle.

Barrel is too long, wood is too shiny and bluing too reflective. Hacksaw, 80 grit on your DA sander, some krylon, little blue tape and it may fly.

I can’t even with your mounting system, scope, lack of DBM and all the other issues. Pure peasant rifle for kelp fed welfare rats at best.

Of course knowing the great weather of your AO and your couch bound ass’s inability to turn a lick it’ll remain unfired. Or not......
I am dying laughing 😂
Well there was some good info here for a few pages but now this thread sucks and my brain has turned to mush reading it.
